The liedje “that’s what friends are for”? Van Dionne Warwick
Citaat:
And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe, I love you
And if I should ever go away
Well, then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today
And then if you can remember
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
Well, you came in loving me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way
I thank you
Oh and then for the times when we're apart
Well, then close your eyes and know
The words are coming from my heart
And then if you can remember
Keep smiling and keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
In good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
Cause I tell you, that's what friends are for
Whoa, good times and the bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Citaat:
If you say up, I say down
We're the most unlikely pair
But up or down, high or low
You've always been right there
You've been a friend to me, a godsend to me
I ain't too proud to say
You've been a friend to me
Now if I'm feeling lowdown
Or feeling ten feet tall
Thick or thin, the shape I'm in
Don't matter to you at all
You've been a friend to me, a godsend to me
I ain't too proud to say
You've been a friend to me
Whenever I needed someone
You're right there on the line
With a friend like you, to get me through
I'll get by every time
Whenever I needed someone
You're right there on the line
With a friend like you, to get me through
I'll get by every time
You've been a friend to me, a godsend to me
I ain't too proud to say
You've been a friend to me
Songwriters: Bryan Adams / Gretchen Peters
